Dear Mr Dixon,

 

YOUR REQUEST:

Under the Freedom of Information Act, I would like to request the number
of drivers who have been charged with a CU80 driving offence (using a
mobile phone while driving) under Section 41D of the Road Traffic Act.
Specifically, I would like the number of people charged in the town of
Warrington in the last financial year.

 

In accordance with section 1(1) (b) of the Act, our response is as
follows:

 

We do not hold information in relation to who has been charged under code
CU80 driving offence as this is a DVLA licence endorsement code, therefore
the DVLA may be able to answer this.

 

However there are 157 Traffic Offence Reports using mobile phone from
01/04/2019 to 31/03/2020  with the location Warrington, please note this
may not be accurate figure if officer has not indicated the offence was in
Warrington.

 

If you are not satisfied with the decision applied in this case I enclose
for your attention a copy of the Constabulary's appeal procedures.

 

Regards
